Maybe If They'd Called It "Freedom Country Living" 

Great Falls, VA-based furniture and home furnishings cataloger French Country Living on July 16 filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy release, abruptly going out of business.

Neither Jeffrey Mills nor John Berg, both principals at San Francisco-based Dorset Capital, which was a majority owner of the one-time $20 million-plus company, would comment. But Don Steiner, a limited partner with Dorset and a principal with Boston-based Webster Capital, says that the company "never had an experienced catalog person at the helm, although we had some good merchants and other good people."
